[SOLVED] 2060 Super Coil Whine

[ahcos]

Hey, guys! I bought an ASUS 2060 SUPER EVO and it had coil whine in Dota 2 at max settings and in Heaven Benchmark but completely silent in FurMark. I RMA'd it. Ordered Palit 2060 SUPER JETSTREAM and it has the same problem. The coil whine comes from the GPU, not mobo or PSU.
My PC:
i7-9700k (no OC)
ASUS Z390 AORUS PRO
Corsair RM550x
I know that coil whine doesn't affect performance but I specifically bought a PC that works in silence (only little fan noise in games) but coil whine is so frustrating.

Are you sure it's coil wine and not fan noise? A 2060 will not be silent when under load - no matter what brand you buy.

 

[ahcos]

It's not the fans because I checked it by stoping them with my hand. What do you mean 2060 will not be silent? The fan noise is okay but coil whine is a problem for me

 

[Ketchup79]

An you upload a video? I'd like to hear it. There is no "fix" for actual coil wine, other than replacing the fan.

 

[ahcos]

it's hard to get on the video but it's noticable. the question is - is it possible to find a GPU that will not make coil whine?

 

[Ketchup79]

Sure it is! I have never had one or worked on one with it Looking forward to your video.

I made this video for my friend so I talk in Russian
The coil whine starts at 1:44 - Dota 2 at max settings and also at 2:41 - when I quit Heaven Benchmark

 

[Ketchup79]

I heard about 3 seconds of wine around the 2:42 mark. Actually sounds like a sound through the speakers more than anything. Is that the sound you are talking about?

 

[ahcos]

yes, its the sound when I quit Heaven Benchmark - its very loud, the basic coil whine that is there when you just play Dota is quiter

 

[Ketchup79]

Coil wine comes from the card, not through the speakers. This is a different sound.

 

[ahcos]

im specifically talking about coil whine that comes from the GPU. speakers have nothing to do with it

 

[Ketchup79]

Well, the file is no longer present so I can't re-listen, and I am not there but, a couple things to try/observations from when I listened last:

1. The sound was loudest when you were at the screen/speakers. I didn't hear anything but the fans when you were at the tower.
2. Unplug everything from the sound card (including USB headphones). See if the noise goes away.
3. Change the resolution on your screen. See if the sound changes pitch (or goes away).
